Isaiah 64:8 illistrates for us that God, our Father, is the potter and we are His clay. We are the product of His labor. However, we are only the product of His labor if we're trying to follow His instructions. What kind of masterpiece would we turn out to be if we never allowed for His interventions in our lives?
I had never put much thought into how our personal will works, but the idea brought up in the book fascinates me. To think that when things are going smoothly and I feel in control of my life... I'm not. It's just that for that season or time in life my will just happens to be in line with God's will for my life. It suddenly makes a heck of a lot more sense now. I'm never in control (thank goodness for that) because God can see further ahead into my future and He's steering me where I need to be and doing what is best for my life.
Thank you God for taking control of my life. You do a much better job than I would even when I try to second guess You.
